RANCHES IN FURNITURE.
Forms and Styles Most in Demand at the
 Present Time.

Forms and Styles Most in Demand at the
 Present Time.
 One of the most fanciful as well as novel designs for the eleciroler Is in representations of the pitcher plant.
 The demand is continued for hand some mahogany furniture in R nais- sancc of richly carved decoration.
 Butternut is a comparatively new adaptation for libraries. A very gem eral fancy is shown for natural wood of every kind.
 The most recent fancied form of toilet table Is arranged with oval glass above, the whole being dra ped with English chintz.
 A carved band in pierced design be- tween moldinGs ia either wood or gilt is form of picture-frame decoration specially adapted to architectural sub- ject.
 An admired example of the Chip pendale style, which is considerably in use, is in white mahogany suitably upholstered In satin damask, for re : cei tiOn-room.
 Hardly a better frame is provided for water colored pictures than that of simple molding covered with gold leaf leaving perfectly visible the grain of the wood.
 The most elegant varieties in wall paper include one in silk which is formed by uniting this material to a paper background, after which the de- sign is printed.
 Suitable frames for pictures in black and whi;e are of oak with possibly a light touch of bronze in the holdings, and showing a decoration of inely- carved work in the outer borIeh
 A rather newly adopted form of upholstered couch is modelled from an East Indian style in cane, being formed with downward curve at the center, with one end also more elevated than the other.
 A general weariness from the want of variety in French design picture frames has led to independent activity in this production, and which is be- coming in a large degree successful in results, the best example being of high order
 Solid gold pieces arc fancied for drawing-room in forms of cabinets, tables, easels, pedestals, screens and fancy chairs. These are in Renais- sance style and of wondrous splendor. Other rich pieces in onyx and gilt are of elaborate forms,
 Orange wood, resembling white ma hogany, is used in elegant forms inlaid with ivory. The odor of the wood is pleasant, and the style becomes more exquisite with age from increasing harmony between the ivory tint and that of the yellowish wood.
 The disposition to combine several styles is illustrated in new set in satin

PEDDLERS OF COREA.
Some of the Singular Wares Which They
 Offer for Sale.

Offer for Sale.
 The pcldlcrs of Clrea sometimes bring their things in packs on coolies' backs, and sometimes they produce a Lushel of bundles from the depths of their loose sleeves. After a boy had shown his choice lot of copper bowls one day he went up his sleeve and brought out trained sparrow that he put through several tricks and slipped up his sleeve again when we refused to buy. Several brought quantities of hair for sale, and insisted upon unroll ing the bundles of coarse. black queues that had been clipped from the heads of Corean boys. There is great trade with China in these Corean locks that are used 10 piece out quertes. A large black bowl, inlaid with moth- -of-pcarl, was brought one day and gave occasion for many re- marks about this wonderful wash bowl being the only proof that any Corean had ever intended to wash him self; but it turned out that the bowl was used to hold the back hair of the palace ladies and singing girls, who wear tremendous chignons weighing fourteen and twenty pounds. Of the really good things that are brought for sale the best are small iron boxes, padlocks and small wcap- ons inlaid with silver in some really fine designs, many of them so nearly Persian as to as!Onish cOnnoisseurs, and others in q fine diaper and key pattern quite as foreign 10 this end cf the world As inlaid metal work it is crude and coarse compared to what other and very near nations can do. Disks of open-work bronze and iron are often brought hung full of coins strung on strings of colored silk. The coins and medals are curious in them selves, and they are regarded not only as charms and ornaments but as proper way for coin-collec or 10 display his treasures. Of embroidery, either new or old, very little is seen that is good or curious, considering the near neighborhood of China and Japan, The peddlers often bring the square bits of embroidery worn on the front and back of the mandarin s palace clothes, but they are generally too fraycd, faded and stained to be of any use. The plastron of q civil man. darin has two Corean stalks flying to- ward each other Distinction as a Chinese scholar allows others 10 wear the storks. while a General sports q brace. of mostdangerous-lOoking white tigers embroidered on black silk, with finish of conventional clouds and waves in brilliant colors. At weddings the bridegroom. however lowly in station may ride in an official chair, sit on an official leopard-skin near the royal red, and also embroider cranes on his gown. The bridegroom pushes the privilege to its limit then, and the plastron of cranes becomes veritable apron If red satin covered with four six and eight cranes of diff erent cOlors. -St. Louis Globe Democrat.

 lively Small Expense.
 Have you ever talked with a man who has travelad around the world and seen every thing from the mouth of the Congo 10 the Chinese wall? 1 met one this morning on the west end vcranda. He travels all the time, and he told me that he made a point of getting into cities and countries at holiday times, when he conld sec them at their best. That is why he stays in America in summer. His next stop ping plac. is Persia; then he goes into Egypt, and he will reach China in April, when the fetes arc held. 1 asked him what it cost to live as he did. 'It would cost you about SIP a day to follow in my paths" ha an- swered, but do it for S7. 9. Living expenses have averaged me that the past year. keep record of every thing and know to q penny what 1 spend. 1 always travel first-class, sec all there is to be seen, and l don t think l have the reputation of being niggardly. But have travelling down to q science It costs me now about p per cent of what it did when 1 began. Of course some of the re- ductiOn comes from the cheapucss of travelling facilities but q good part of it comes from knowing what 1 am about.
 Travelling is business, and to do it economically one has 10 learn it as he has trade. For example. tipping costs me about one third what it would inexperienced people, because I know when to tip and when not to. Then in living I save again. live on the European plan always, so that if I am sightseeing can get my meals any where without feeling that am pay ing for another I do not eat. Then always avoid table d'hote That's aLother way of paying for more than you want My biggest meal is my breakfast. If l get a good one 1 don't care much what have the rest of the day. l find that most travellers feel the same way. l keep diary of every thing Ido, and can tell what did and where was on any day for twenty years past. I can only speak one lam guage-English, though have picked up a smattering of French, but get along with my native tongue. You will find English-speaking people the world over, and I never trouble my self about the language of the country l am going to. to.-PhttGdelphiG Press

PRESERVING THE DEAD.

 EIectrO-PIating Bodies.

Description of the Methods Employed iE
 EIectrO-PIating Bodies.
 The latest method of preserving the dead, and one which is growing into popular favor, is electro-plating. IL is the application of perfectly even metallic coating to the surface of the body itself by the same process es that which produces an electrotype plate: The method is, briefly, this: The body is washed with alcohol and sprinkled with fine graphite powder to insure the perfect conduction of electricity. It is then placed in bath of metallic solution containing piece of metal to be used; to this is attached the posi- tive pole of a strong batteryi the neg ntive pole Is applied to the corpse and fine film of the metal at once begins to cover the body perfectly and evenly. This may be kept up until the coat ing attains any desired thickness. To this process there would seem to be no valid objection. In effect it transforms tho corpse into beautiful statue-form, feature. and even eX- pression being perfectly preserved. The body, being dramatically sealed within its metal inclosure, merely dries up and assumes the aspect of a mummy. This method obviates many objections which have been urged against cremation. and at the same time meets the wishes of those whose sentiment, if nothing else, inclines them to favor the ordinary way of burial. The feeling of desecration of the human form divine which its re- duction to handful of ashes causes to many people is entirely done away with, as no rude hand is laid upon the once-loved form. No change is brought about in appearance except that face and figure are covered with a shining vail, through which the familiar linea' ments appear with all their well-re- mem bered chsfaeteristics and expres- sion. - Western Electrician,

REMOVING VARNISH.
How It May Be Easily Done Without In-
 jury to Paintings.

How It May Be Easily Done Without In-
 jury to Paintings.
 s'Yes. Yarnish can be removed from oil paintings without injuring the sketch, but it is difficult job said a Fifteenth street expert on paintings to reporter.
 "WelI, how do you go about itP"
 ''To begin with. every thing depends on the varnish used originally on the picture. If it is permanent then it's removal is absolutely necessary. but if retouching varnish has been made uso of there remains nothing but to paint over it, which may be done without fear of injuring the picture. ."
 How would you remove this per- manent varnish?'
 "A wooden box, the size of s,retcher must be procured, and In this would place the picture face up. This receptacle is to be shallow of course, say from three to i've inches in depth. according to the thickness of the stretcher. Its lid must fit closely, and before placed ln position a lining of cotton batting. saturated with alcohol, should be att tached. Then, after putting in the picture, I should nail down the cover, and the varnish will soon be dissolved by the fumes from the alcohol. "
 "How long would you have the picture in this position?"
 That is determined only by expert- ence. and to novices the above expe- riment is sometimes costly, for the greatest care must be exercised in judging the length of time necessary to remove the varnish. If left exposed too long the painting itself will be in iured by the alcohol. If the painting is valuable, wouldn't advise an inex- perienced person to try this arrange ment, unless under the personal super vision of an expert-M r. 4a% S"d Express

The Views of Prominent New York
 Wholesale Merchant.
 I'm looking bad? We'll. I ought to; I've lost fully twenty-five pounds within the last nine months through som thing not usually put under the head of business cares. Want to know what it is, eh! We'll. don't t mind telling you. although my state ment will probably rouse q storm of indignation, but I assure you that m y loss of flesh arises from nothing moro or less than worrying over my clerks.
 T heartily appreciate all editoria al comments on the question of dishonesty among clerks. Every year it becomes more and more difficult apparently for some young men to keep within the paths of righteousness. At one time 1 thought that human nature was con- stantly growing more depraved, and now am firmly convinced that tho opportunities offered to the young men of the present day for going wrong infinitely more numerous than formerly and seem to be almost forced upon them.
 "Take special case, which recently came under my immediate observa- ton. Tho young man in question began to associate with arather fast set, who considered gambling a legiti- mate pleasure. His refusal to join the game was taken as tantamount confession of weakness. and he soon found himself ns lonely as ship. wrecked sailor upon desert isle. H c stood it as long as he could and then returned to the society of his reckless companions. What was the result? In three months, between poker and race pools, he had lost a large amount of his employers money, which he found himself unable to replace at the moment, and his previously promising business career has been hopelessly ruined,
 T agree with you that it is an eti: ployer's duty to keep himself informed as to his clerks mode of life outside of business hours, and have firmly re- solved that no young man in my em- ploy will 90 wrong for lack of the few words of kindly warning which Would have saved to the world many man who is now q criminal.

wool, inlaid with amaranth, in which a French feature in the form of carved wreaths is introduced at the top, while something of the Adams style appears in the portion beneath.
 Some handsome styles in white ma- hogany are distinguished by inlaid designs in amaranth, ebony and pearl. One especially elaborate example in chamber furniture in this wood, finish ed in the natural color, is adorned with wide bands of inlaid work in amaranth, ebony, satin, wood, brass and copper.
 A fanciful style is represented by a table in white mahogany inlaid with copper; a border is formed with squares of tin metal, which is intro- duced in like form of different pro- portions in the central design, show ing also forms of insects, here and there, with bodies and wings i~ mother of pearl tinted in various colorS.
 The electicism everywhere in prac- tice is shown with one of the recent styles in white and gold of modified colonial design introducing spindles in reversed arrangement, the larger portion being uppermost, an with a band above bearing form of orna- ment cut in and gilded, which is of somewhat gothic character.
 New patterns in wall paper include one for a frieze in imitation of q looped curtain. Ths shows running borders of vines and dark green and yellow foliage, on . ground in French gray with a tinge of red, the ground of the wall paper being in sea green. A representation of a rod in bamboo is painted to aid the effect of suspended drapery. N r Star.

in medicine, however, was not new, as Discoridcs, the physician of Antony and Cleopatra, is said 10 have made use of them.
 D.. Walsh's method was 10 place a living torpedo upon q wet towel; from plate he suspended two pieces of brass wire by means of silken cord, which served to insulate them. Round the torpedo were eight persons stand ing on insulated substances. One end of the brass wire was supported by the wet towel, the other end being placed in basinful of water. The first person had a ling,r of one hand in this basin and finger of the other hand in a second basin, also full of water. The second person placed a finger of one hand in this second basin aHd finger of the other in third blsin. The third person did the same, and so on until q complete chain was established between the eight persons and nine basins. Into the ninth basin the end of the brass wire was plunged, while Dr. Walsh applied the other end to the back of the torpedo, thus estab- fishing complete conducted circle.
 At the moment when the eXpcri- menter touched the torpedo the eight actors in the experiment felt a sudden shock, similar in all respecs to that communicated by the shock of a Leyden jar, only less intense. The torpedo was then placed upon an in- sulated supporter and communicated to twenty persons similarly placed from forty to fifty shocks in a minute and half. Each effort made by tho fish was accompanied by q depression of the eyes, which were slightly pro jecting in their natural state, and seemed to be drawn within their orbits, while the other parts of the body remained i'm movable. If only one of the organs were touched. in place of q strong and sudden shock, only q slight sensation was experienced-a numbness rather than shock. The same result followed with every experiment tried. The fish was tried with non-conducting rod, and no shock followed; glass or a rod covered with wax produced no effect; touched with metallic wire a violent shock followed. A Boston physician in making experiments with q power. ful fish was several times completely hoored, and when at q distance of twelve feet he struck fish with a gig, the shock was so powerful that he could not release his hold.
 Q1itc a mum Der of electric fishes are known, of which the South American gymn0tus is undoubtedly the most powerful. It is that they are caught by driving wild mustangs in the water, the fish cXhaus ting their powers upon them, often fatally. Tho tOrpedoes are then captured by the natives. In all nine difcrcn nt species are known, three of the curious electricians be- longing to the Riy family. One is swordfish, another catfish, called in the Nile country of Egypt "the thunder fish," and the third is the elec- tric tetraod on from Comoro.
